Description
My sister and I were walking along Lake Tahoe yesterday, and this magnificent creature was just perched on a post about 30 feet in front of us. I used my zoom, kept getting closer and closer. He let me get about 5 feet away from him; I didn't want to press my luck ~~or make him mad!! At any rate, I took a LOT of pix of him, this was the closest close up!!

Wowwww such marvelous capture Charlene!
Did your legs start shaking and your heart thumping so hard you could hear it, I bet the adrenalin was pumping somewhat, to be so close to something that could rip you open with a swipe from its tallons. You are a very brave woman thats for sure. Superb capture Marilyn, I'm supprised that it allowed you to get so close, and also that the shot is so clear, I would be shaking that much with excitement, I'm sure I'd forget to press the shutter release. Awesome! Bravo!!!!!5+++++ The sky is a bit burnt out but who cares.
Oh. Wow. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and it must be true! I knew what I was going to see when I clicked this open, but no amount of you telling me how cool this is prepared me for how cool this is! Awesome, fantastic, amazing, gorgeous, stunning, spectacular photo!
Beautiful, Marilyn. This is a stunning capture of this magnificent creature.
phenomenal image!
Stunning shot of his breast feathers and the tones are beautiful for this shot.
wow marilyn this must be a million to one shot to be this close to such an awesome bird .you did well not buckling under the pressure of taking this shot :o)..superb capture mick
Yayyy! Magnificent creature is right! Terrific POV and textures in this tele-portrait of the gallant raptor, apparently more than willing to have its picture taken. Even so, it conveys the message: Don't tread on me! BTW, the body plumage is striking, but it appears the avian was having a bad hair day.
Stunning photo Marilyn. This should be up on your wall at home, the photo, not the bird. Tony :-)
Awesome capture! Well done!
wow, dont you just love it when they cooperate with you!!!??? You did GREAT!
A fantastic close-up. Wonderful details!
Unbelievable!
